IEEE 754 floating point numbers (i.e. float8 or "double precision" in
PG) are defined to have a 52 bit significand and hence can store integer

Also for one-dimensional ranges, consider contrib/seg

NUMERIC is scalar, so an R-Tree doesn't make much sense. You can install
btree_gist (a contrib module) to be able to use numeric column
Hi,

know, PostgreSQL supports R-Trees via the GiST index class for some
spatial types (box and the like). When I create a GiST index on two
numeric columns, I get the error message:
ERROR: data type numeric has no default
